研究目的
To develop a fluorescent cocktail nanoparticle for simultaneously detecting intracellular mRNA and H2O2 to differentiate tumor, inflammation, and normal cells for improved tumor diagnosis.
研究成果
The fluorescent cocktail nanoparticle successfully differentiated tumor, inflammatory, and normal cells by cooperative detection of H2O2 and mRNA, showing high sensitivity and specificity with potential for early tumor diagnosis.
研究不足
The study is limited to in vitro cell cultures and may not fully represent in vivo conditions. The specificity and efficiency in complex biological environments need further validation. Potential interferences from other cellular components were not extensively tested.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved designing a pH-responsive amphiphilic polymer conjugated with an H2O2 probe and encapsulating a DNA probe based on FRET for mRNA detection. Nanoparticles were self-assembled and characterized.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Cell lines used were NIH3T3 (normal), RAW
3:7 (inflammatory), and HCT116 (tumor) from ATCC. Synthetic DNA sequences were prepared. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
2 Instruments included NMR spectrometer, GPC, DLS, TEM, CLSM, flow cytometer, pH meter, and fluorescence spectrometer. Materials included polymers, DNA probes, H2O2, and cell culture reagents.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Synthesis of polymers and probes, nanoparticle preparation, characterization (size, zeta potential, pH and H2O2 responsiveness), cell culture, cytotoxicity assays, cellular uptake studies, colocalization experiments, and intracellular imaging via flow cytometry and CLSM.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Statistical analysis using Student's t-test, fluorescence intensity measurements, and kinetic studies.
